Hello, do you have the procedure to reset the “Service Interval” message and mileage on the dash (not Oil Service, which appears right after Service/Maint.) for a 2011 Audi A3? I’ve tried your procedure for the 03-09, but no go. Going through multiple suggestions, I always end up resetting the Oil Service, not the Service which shows due in 200 miles / 19 days or similar. Thanks for your time. – Joe.

You need vcds to carry out a mileage service reset. Only oil service can be reset on the display, as i have found out today after much messing about. It took me longer to reset the service.indicator than it did to actually do the service.

I have tried to reset the service indicator using all the above procedures on an Audi March 2008 TDI 2.0. Itreid under the 2003 – 2009 didn’t work.
Then tried the other procedures for the other years but still didn’t work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Colin
